Remote Visual Inspection (RVI)

What is Remote Visual Inspection? 

Remote Visual Inspection (RVI) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) method that uses high-resolution cameras, borescopes, and robotic systems to assess the internal condition of hard-to-reach or hazardous components. This method allows inspectors to evaluate structural integrity, detect defects, and ensure operational safety without requiring physical access to confined or dangerous areas. 

Dexon Technology’s advanced RVI solutions help operators maintain asset reliability, improve safety, and comply with industry regulations. 

Common Problems and How Remote Visual Inspection Provides Solutions 

Industrial facilities often contain components that are difficult or unsafe to access, such as pipelines, tanks, turbines, and pressure vessels. Traditional inspection methods require dismantling equipment or performing confined-space entry, increasing costs, risks, and downtime. 

Remote Visual Inspection addresses these challenges by: 

• Providing Access to Hard-to-Reach Areas: RVI tools such as robotic crawlers and borescopes navigate confined spaces, eliminating the need for human entry. 

• Detecting Early-Stage Defects: High-definition imaging allows for the identification of corrosion, cracks, weld defects, and material degradation before failures occur. 

• Enhancing Safety and Reducing Risk: RVI minimizes exposure to hazardous environments by allowing remote data collection from high-temperature, high-pressure, or radiation-exposed areas. 

• Minimizing Downtime and Inspection Costs: Unlike conventional methods that require disassembly, RVI provides real-time assessments with minimal disruption to operations. 

By integrating RVI into maintenance programs, Dexon Technology helps clients detect and address defects efficiently, reducing risks and extending lifespan. 

Methods Used in Dexon’s Remote Visual Inspection Services 

Dexon Technology uses industry-leading RVI techniques to deliver accurate and reliable assessments, including: 

• Borescope and Fiberscope Inspection: Flexible and rigid borescopes provide high-resolution imaging inside small-diameter pipes, turbines, and machinery. 

• Robotic Crawler Inspection: Remote-controlled crawlers equipped with cameras and sensors navigate pipelines, tanks, and confined spaces. 

• Drone-Assisted Aerial Inspection: Drones assess structural conditions in large industrial facilities, towers, and high-elevation assets. 

• Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) Camera Systems: High-definition PTZ cameras provide wide-area coverage for in-depth structural inspections. 

• Thermal Imaging and Infrared Inspection: Infrared technology detects heat variations that indicate leaks, electrical faults, or insulation issues.
